Rating: Comment:It is not simply "orientalist", a word championed by Edward Said. Nor is it simply the "average Joe," who think that some religious Muslims men are Male Chauvinist. I have worked at places that teach ELS and personally take issue with this source, as it is to reliant on reporting. For example, I have a situation where I cannot talk to my neighbors because the man in the house is in Jordan? As such, if I have a problem I am to talk to the building manager. And I have been told that it is because they are Muslims. Now, these statistics do not record these types of situations. I bet the numbers where low in America during the 1950 and before, as it pertains to domestic violence. Silence is a powerful weapon, as is culture. We cannot allow people to hide, to take cover behind culture.

Rating: Comment:I hope there were some recent informations, like in 2005~2009 or at least in 21st century. Also, I hope there were some informations about women abuse in Islamic worlds too, because it sound like you're saying Islamic world is all good, but other place isn't. I think the world is all corrupted the same way.

Rating: Comment:The information covered was well presented and compelling however to start a contrast of the Muslim world to the United States then only show statistics of the United States gives the feel of an incomplete article. Ok, I now have information about the U.S. but what do they mean when analyzed with your first comments if I do not have a basis for the rates of violence in the Muslim world.
